Transmission Towers

We are the most experienced and reliable supplier of lattice steel structures for electrical transmission towers in the region, providing an optimized solution based on ASCE 10-15 and AISC 360-05 standards.

Our design, manufacturing, and supply and installation capabilities give us an unmatched ability to be a comprehensive and competitive supplier in the electric transmission market.

The towers can have a wide variety of shapes due to their geometry, function, and the voltage of the energy transported, as well as sizes. Normal height ranges are from 20 meters to over 120 meters.

Self-supported lattice

These structures are formed using angular section steel profiles, are used for power lines of all voltages, and are the most common type for high-voltage transmission lines.

Factors to consider for its manufacture are:

• Geographical location of the site.
- Tower height and existing area for its installation.
• Wind speed (region).
• Loads supported by the structure
• Number of transmission lines and their diameter.

Characteristics

The steel used is grade 36, 50, and 65.
Stubs that are a combination of angles are used.
• The screws used are based on the ASTM A394 standard
• They are designed in specialized software.
• Hot-dip galvanized according to ASTM A123 standard
• Liquid paint or powder coating

Advantages

• Ease of transport: the elements that make up the towers are transported disassembled, taking up little space and facilitating handling.

• Immediate manufacturing: With approved designs, the manufacturing process and galvanizing are very fast, ensuring timely deliveries.

• Quick assembly: Assembly with angles, plates, and screws to form sections, done easily with minimal personnel and tools.

Durability: Because they are hot-dip galvanized, the towers offer a longer lifespan, even in the most unfavorable conditions (industrial areas, marine environments).

• Less weight: The towers are very light and therefore inexpensive. The low weight implies economy in their foundations.

• Possibility of partial replacements: Quick and easy change of structural elements when circumstances require it.

• Recyclable: When demolished, it still preserves the residual value of the material,
since it is recoverable.
